Plot

When Gumball is about to tell him he looks great, he begins to glitch. Gumball tries to talk to Darwin again, but he continues to glitch. When Darwin tries on a small beanie, he asks Gumball if the beanie makes it look like he has a fat head. Gumball tries to compliment him on it, but he starts glitching again. Darwin, thinking that Gumball is trying to insult him, storms off. Gumball tries to catch up with him, but the scene glitches out.

The next scene shows a No Signal message on the TV at home, with a panicked Richard trying to fix it. Gumball arrives home and asks his dad where Darwin is. Richard moves the sofa into the kitchen, deciding to watch the fridge instead of the TV. Darwin is exercising, and Gumball tries to talk to him, but glitches again, injuring Darwin by accident.

In the bathroom, Darwin gets mad, but Gumball cheers him up by tickling him. When Darwin smiles, he glitches and looks like he was melting, nauseating Gumball. They both quickly brush it off and decide to hug and make up, but Darwin glitches again showing human eyes replacing his regular eyes, nauseating Gumball again. Darwin storms out of the bathroom.

In his room, Gumball types an apology message to Darwin and reads it out, but he glitches again and makes the message seem rude when he reads it, so Darwin gets mad and slams the door in his face.

In the living room, Gumball keeps trying to apologize to Darwin, but the scene jumps to them fighting. Richard then pretends to glitch in order to distract them. Now that they have stopped fighting, Richard takes them to buy them an ice cream (which is just an excuse to get himself some ice cream). In the car, Richard tries to cheer the boys up by playing a game. Darwin sarcastically suggests playing a game about what offensive thing Gumball will say next. Richard, not understanding his sarcasm, decides to play and makes up very funny insults, which causes the boys to make up. The scene then jumps to a gas station.

At the gas station, Richard fills the car with gas, but the scene jumps again to the car running away on the highway on its own with Gumball and Darwin still in the car, leaving behind Richard, who is glitching for real.

The car goes through many obstacle courses due to several glitches and finally crashes into Joyful Burger. The car slows down and stops to a telephone at the parking lot near Elmore Mall, but another glitch made the car go faster back into Elmore Mall and back to the TVs from the beginning of the episode, almost crashing into Larry. Gumball and Darwin come to the conclusion that they are in a TV show, but the scene unexpectedly jumps to the whole Watterson family at the table, with Richard saying that Gumball and Darwin made up. He, Anais and Nicole laugh, with Gumball and Darwin joining in mirthlessly, before the episode glitches one last time, ending the episode abruptly.

Gumball almost breaks the fourth wall when he nearly admits that he and Darwin are on TV, but the scene jumps to the family eating dinner before he can state it.

When Richard glitches out in the Watterson's living room, his Spanish dialogue reads in English "Desconsuela, you need a doctor. It's her kidneys."

In the Swedish dub of the episode when Richard is speaking gibberish in the living room, if the audio is reversed, Richard says "Det är ju egentligen en bergskedja men va fan. Jag mins en gång en segelsemester till Anderna. Det är ju egentligen en bergskedja men va fan. Haha" ("It's actually a mountain range but what the hell. I remember a sailing trip to The Andes. It's actually a mountain range but what the hell"). This is not present in the English version.

Darwin: [Gumball turning back to normal and looked worried] Yeah, too Canadian. [Return the hat to the box and pulled out a very small hat and placed on his head] I really like this one, but do you think it makes me look like I have a fat head?

Apology Letter

Gumball: [Writing on paper] Dear Darwin... Nah. [Throws away paper and grabs a new one] Dearest Buddy... Hmm. [Throws away paper and pulls out a type writer] To my best compan... [Throws away type writer and pulls out a laptop] Dear Darwin, you are not only my brother, but my best friend. You are not ugly. Your face is fine. I feel utterly horrible for what happened today. I hope we don't stop being friends over this. [Tears form in Gumball's eyes] I hate to see you upset, because when you cry, I cry. May we never let this happen again. Your best buddy, Gumball... Nah. Not sure. [Prepares to throw computer]

Darwin: What's that?

Gumball: Oh! It's...umm...It's a letter. Uh...a letter I wrote for you.

[A sign appears that says “Lost Signal” and everything goes black. When the screen turns back on, Darwin is attacking Gumball in anger while Richard is screaming. Suddenly, Richard starts to make strange faces while speaking gibberish, stopping the fighting]

Gumball: See? Look! Something's not right! Dad's gone weird too!

Richard: No I haven't! That was a diversion to make you two stop fighting. Worked! Okay! I've got an idea. If you guys make up, I'll take you to buy me an ice cream...I mean you an ice cream...us an ice cream! Ya! I'll take you to buy us an ice cream.

Getting Ice Cream

Darwin: [Shrugs] Hmm.

Richard: Good! Let's go then!

Darwin: I guess you can have my ice cream, seeing as I should be dieting.

Gumball: Oh! Thanks, dude!

[Darwin grunts; Richard is driving to go get ice cream. Gumball tries to say something, but Darwin is sulking]

Richard: Come on, kids! Don't be like that! Why don't we play a game?

Darwin: Yeah! How about we play “What Offensive Thing Will Gumball Say to Darwin Next?”

Richard: Oh! Uh...uh... You're so chubby your butt cheeks are in different time zones? No? Um... You're so dumb that you deleted the cookies on your computer to try to lose weight.

[Darwin giggles and quickly returns to his sulking]

Richard: Oh! Oh! You're so ugly the sweat runs down the back of your head to avoid your face! [Laughs]

[Gumball and Darwin start laughing, but the scene glitches and skips to Richard getting gas]

Glitching Out

[Gumball and Darwin inhale, as if about to scream, and are cut off by two baby birds screaming]

Gumball: Hold on! I'm going to take the wheel!

Darwin: No! You can't! You have to keep your seat belt on!

Gumball: Why?

Darwin: 'Cause otherwise'—

[A claymation video of a car crashing into a wall appears, followed by a picture of a see-through human head and a realistic watermelon exploding]

Gumball: Fair point.

[Gumball and Darwin scream in shrill voices]

Gumball: Watch out!

Darwin: I am watching! That's all there is to do!

[Gumball and Darwin keep screaming, glitch, then the scene changes to them on the slope of a tall cliff]

Gumball and Darwin: Oh. Okay...

[Darwin raises his arms as the car is about to go down]

Gumball: What are you doing?

Darwin: I don't know. It just feels right.

[The car goes forward and down the cliff. Just as Patrick gets into his car, they crash into it. Patrick's scream is cut off by a scene of ice cream being poured into a cone]

Gumball: Darwin! I've got a plan!

Darwin: What?

Gumball: The plan is you come up with a plan, 'cause I haven't got one!

Darwin: Okay! But there is one small flaw!

Gumball: What?

Darwin: [Whispering] I don't have one either.

[Their scream is cut off by a video of plastic clowns turning their heads; Gumball and Darwin imitate them.]

Gumball: No! We're going to crash—

[As the car crashes through Joyful Burger, the scene glitches to a Joyful Burger commercial.]

Voice: Crashing through prices this weekend at Joyful Burger!

[Back to the car, Gumball and Darwin's mouths are filled with fast food]

Gumball: What?

[Gumball and Darwin resume their shrill screaming, as the car crashes in a parking lot through the gate, nearly hitting pedestrians. As they reach the mall, the car begins to slow down]

Gumball: Ooh! We made it! I'm glad that's over—

[Scene switches to a panther themed commercial]

Voice: Panther treads! Made to keep you rollin'!

[Scene switches back to their car running with panther legs]

Gumball: [Screams] No!

[The car drives through the mall and glitches to a stop, just before they hit Larry. Larry faints]

Kip Schlezinger: In other news, the town of Elmore has recently been suffering from some satellite broadcast issues. We assure you, we are working on the problem, so please, bear with us while we... [TV glitches to a “Lost Signal” sign]

Gumball: Wait. Then why is it affecting us... [Glitches to a blank screen with sign that says “Lost Signal”] u...u....us.

Darwin: Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Gumball: If what happens on TV happens to us, does that mean we're on...

[Scene glitches to the Wattersons sitting at their table in the dining room]

Richard: We all got home and everything was fine. You two made up, we're all safe, and all's well that ends well.

[Everyone laughs, except Gumball and Darwin do it in a nervous manner, just before the episode glitches out to the credits]
